Farewell fund for Lucy: help Samuel's family in Mombasa
Lucy passed away on 22 September; we're raising $350 for a respectful funeral in Mombasa.
🇰🇪 Mombasa, Mombasa, Kenya652 views
Lucy, my sister, passed away on 22 September after a long fight with kidney disease. She was 62 years old. She was the heart of our family and had no savings or life insurance.
The funeral home has given us a quote of $350 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 3 October.
I have already used what I had for the hospital bills. My family is scattered, and many of us are out of work. We want Lucy to have a dignified farewell.
Any help at all means a lot, and so do your prayers.
Anything left over after the funeral will be donated to a local food bank.
Where the $350 goes:
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $260
• Memorial gathering for the family: $30
• Transport of the deceased: $60
